2023-10-29Guard against overflow in make_interval().Dean Rasheed

2023-10-13Add support for AT LOCALMichael Paquier
When converting a timestamp to/from with/without time zone, the SQL Standard specifies an AT LOCAL variant of AT TIME ZONE which uses the session's time zone. This includes three system functions able to do the work in the same way as the existing flavors for AT TIME ZONE, except that these need to be marked as stable as they depend on the session's TimeZone GUC.

2023-05-17Add back SQLValueFunction for SQL keywordsMichael Paquier
This is equivalent to a revert of f193883 and fb32748, with the addition that the declaration of the SQLValueFunction node needs to gain a couple of node_attr for query jumbling. The performance impact of removing the function call inlining is proving to be too huge for some workloads where these are used. A worst-case test case of involving only simple SELECT queries with a SQL keyword is proving to lead to a reduction of 10% in TPS via pgbench and prepared queries on a high-end machine. None of the tests I ran back for this set of changes saw such a huge gap, but Alexander Lakhin and Andres Freund have found that this can be noticeable. Keeping the older performance would mean to do more inlining in the executor when using COERCE_SQL_SYNTAX for a function expression, similarly to what SQLValueFunction does. This requires more redesign work and there is little time until 16beta1 is released, so for now reverting the change is the best way forward, bringing back the previous performance.

2023-03-18Add functions to do timestamptz arithmetic in a non-default timezone.Tom Lane
Add versions of timestamptz + interval, timestamptz - interval, and generate_series(timestamptz, ...) in which a timezone can be specified explicitly instead of defaulting to the TimeZone GUC setting. The new functions for the first two are named date_add and date_subtract. This might seem too generic, but we could use overloading to add additional variants if that seems useful.

2023-01-26Improve TimestampDifferenceMilliseconds to cope with overflow sanely.Tom Lane
We'd like to use TimestampDifferenceMilliseconds with the stop_time possibly being TIMESTAMP_INFINITY, but up to now it's disclaimed responsibility for overflow cases. Define it to clamp its output to the range [0, INT_MAX], handling overflow correctly. (INT_MAX rather than LONG_MAX seems appropriate, because the function is already described as being intended for calculating wait times for WaitLatch et al, and that infrastructure only handles waits up to INT_MAX. Also, this choice gets rid of cross-platform behavioral differences.) Having done that, we can replace some ad-hoc code in walreceiver.c with a simple call to TimestampDifferenceMilliseconds. While at it, fix some buglets in existing callers of TimestampDifferenceMilliseconds: basebackup_copy.c had not read the memo about TimestampDifferenceMilliseconds never returning a negative value, and postmaster.c had not read the memo about Min() and Max() being macros with multiple-evaluation hazards. Neither of these quite seem worth back-patching. Patch by me; thanks to Nathan Bossart for review. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/3126727.1674759248@sss.pgh.pa.us

2022-12-30Fix precision handling for some COERCE_SQL_SYNTAX functionsMichael Paquier
f193883 has been incorrectly setting up the precision used in the timestamp compilations returned by the following functions: - LOCALTIME - LOCALTIMESTAMP - CURRENT_TIME - CURRENT_TIMESTAMP Specifying an out-of-range precision for CURRENT_TIMESTAMP and LOCALTIMESTAMP was raising a WARNING without adjusting the precision, leading to a subsequent error. LOCALTIME and CURRENT_TIME raised a WARNING without an error, still the precision given to the internal routines was not correct, so let's be clean. Ian has reported the problems in timestamp.c, while I have noticed the ones in date.c.

2022-12-09Allow DateTimeParseError to handle bad-timezone error messages.Tom Lane
Pay down some ancient technical debt (dating to commit 022fd9966): fix a couple of places in datetime parsing that were throwing ereport's immediately instead of returning a DTERR code that could be interpreted by DateTimeParseError. The reason for that was that there was no mechanism for passing any auxiliary data (such as a zone name) to DateTimeParseError, and these errors seemed to really need it. Up to now it didn't matter that much just where the error got thrown, but now we'd like to have a hard policy that datetime parse errors get thrown from just the one place. Hence, invent a "DateTimeErrorExtra" struct that can be used to carry any extra values needed for specific DTERR codes. Perhaps in the future somebody will be motivated to use this to improve the specificity of other DateTimeParseError messages, but for now just deal with the timezone-error cases. This is on the way to making the datetime input functions report parse errors softly; but it's really an independent change, so commit separately.

2022-11-21Replace SQLValueFunction by COERCE_SQL_SYNTAXMichael Paquier
This switch impacts 9 patterns related to a SQL-mandated special syntax for function calls: - LOCALTIME [ ( typmod ) ] - LOCALTIMESTAMP [ ( typmod ) ] - CURRENT_TIME [ ( typmod ) ] - CURRENT_TIMESTAMP [ ( typmod ) ] - CURRENT_DATE Five new entries are added to pg_proc to compensate the removal of SQLValueFunction to provide backward-compatibility and making this change transparent for the end-user (for example for the attribute generated when a keyword is specified in a SELECT or in a FROM clause without an alias, or when specifying something else than an Iconst to the parser). The parser included a set of checks coming from the files in charge of holding the C functions used for the SQLValueFunction calls (as of transformSQLValueFunction()), which are now moved within each function's execution path, so this reduces the dependencies between the execution and the parsing steps. As of this change, all the SQL keywords use the same paths for their work, relying only on COERCE_SQL_SYNTAX. Like fb32748, no performance difference has been noticed, while the perf profiles get reduced with ExecEvalSQLValueFunction() gone. Bump catalog version.

2022-05-11Fix some incorrect preprocessor tests in tuplesort specializationsDavid Rowley
697492434 added 3 new quicksort specialization functions for common datatypes. That commit was not very consistent in how it would determine if we're compiling for 32-bit or 64-bit machines. It would sometimes use USE_FLOAT8_BYVAL and at other times check if SIZEOF_DATUM == 8. This could cause theoretical problems due to the way USE_FLOAT8_BYVAL is now defined based on SIZEOF_VOID_P >= 8. If pointers for some reason were ever larger than 8-bytes then we'd end up doing 32-bit comparisons mistakenly. Let's just always check SIZEOF_DATUM >= 8. It also seems that ssup_datum_signed_cmp is just never used on 32-bit builds, so let's just ifdef that out to make sure we never accidentally use that comparison function on such machines. This also allows us to ifdef out 1 of the 3 new specialization quicksort functions in 32-bit builds which seems to shrink down the binary by over 4KB on my machine. In passing, also add the missing DatumGetInt32() / DatumGetInt64() macros in the comparison functions.

2022-04-02Fix overflow hazards in interval input and output conversions.Tom Lane
DecodeInterval (interval input) was careless about integer-overflow hazards, allowing bogus results to be obtained for sufficiently large input values. Also, since it initially converted the input to a "struct tm", it was impossible to produce the full range of representable interval values. Meanwhile, EncodeInterval (interval output) and a few other functions could suffer failures if asked to process sufficiently large interval values, because they also relied on being able to represent an interval in "struct tm" which is not designed to handle that. Fix all this stuff by introducing new struct types that are more fit for purpose. While this is clearly a bug fix, it's also an API break for any code that's calling these functions directly. So back-patching doesn't seem wise, especially in view of the lack of field complaints.

2022-04-02Specialize tuplesort routines for different kinds of abbreviated keysJohn Naylor
Previously, the specialized tuplesort routine inlined handling for reverse-sort and NULLs-ordering but called the datum comparator via a pointer in the SortSupport struct parameter. Testing has showed that we can get a useful performance gain by specializing datum comparison for the different representations of abbreviated keys -- signed and unsigned 64-bit integers and signed 32-bit integers. Almost all abbreviatable data types will benefit -- the only exception for now is numeric, since the datum comparison is more complex. The performance gain depends on data type and input distribution, but often falls in the range of 10-20% faster.

2021-04-06Change return type of EXTRACT to numericPeter Eisentraut
The previous implementation of EXTRACT mapped internally to date_part(), which returned type double precision (since it was implemented long before the numeric type existed). This can lead to imprecise output in some cases, so returning numeric would be preferrable. Changing the return type of an existing function is a bit risky, so instead we do the following: We implement a new set of functions, which are now called "extract", in parallel to the existing date_part functions. They work the same way internally but use numeric instead of float8. The EXTRACT construct is now mapped by the parser to these new extract functions. That way, dumps of views etc. from old versions (which would use date_part) continue to work unchanged, but new uses will map to the new extract functions. Additionally, the reverse compilation of EXTRACT now reproduces the original syntax, using the new mechanism introduced in 40c24bfef92530bd846e111c1742c2a54441c62c. The following minor changes of behavior result from the new implementation: - The column name from an isolated EXTRACT call is now "extract" instead of "date_part". - Extract from date now rejects inappropriate field names such as HOUR. It was previously mapped internally to extract from timestamp, so it would silently accept everything appropriate for timestamp. - Return values when extracting fields with possibly fractional values, such as second and epoch, now have the full scale that the value has internally (so, for example, '1.000000' instead of just '1').

2020-11-10Fix and simplify some usages of TimestampDifference().Tom Lane
Introduce TimestampDifferenceMilliseconds() to simplify callers that would rather have the difference in milliseconds, instead of the select()-oriented seconds-and-microseconds format. This gets rid of at least one integer division per call, and it eliminates some apparently-easy-to-mess-up arithmetic. Two of these call sites were in fact wrong: * pg_prewarm's autoprewarm_main() forgot to multiply the seconds by 1000, thus ending up with a delay 1000X shorter than intended. That doesn't quite make it a busy-wait, but close. * postgres_fdw's pgfdw_get_cleanup_result() thought it needed to compute microseconds not milliseconds, thus ending up with a delay 1000X longer than intended. Somebody along the way had noticed this problem but misdiagnosed the cause, and imposed an ad-hoc 60-second limit rather than fixing the units. This was relatively harmless in context, because we don't care that much about exactly how long this delay is; still, it's wrong. There are a few more callers of TimestampDifference() that don't have a direct need for seconds-and-microseconds, but can't use TimestampDifferenceMilliseconds() either because they do need microsecond precision or because they might possibly deal with intervals long enough to overflow 32-bit milliseconds. It might be worth inventing another API to improve that, but that seems outside the scope of this patch; so those callers are untouched here. Given the fact that we are fixing some bugs, and the likelihood that future patches might want to back-patch code that uses this new API, back-patch to all supported branches.

2020-10-07Prevent internal overflows in date-vs-timestamp and related comparisons.Tom Lane
The date-vs-timestamp, date-vs-timestamptz, and timestamp-vs-timestamptz comparators all worked by promoting the first type to the second and then doing a simple same-type comparison. This works fine, except when the conversion result is out of range, in which case we throw an entirely avoidable error. The sources of such failures are (a) type date can represent dates much farther in the future than the timestamp types can; (b) timezone rotation might cause a just-in-range timestamp value to become a just-out-of-range timestamptz value. Up to now we just ignored these corner-case issues, but now we have an actual user complaint (bug #16657 from Huss EL-Sheikh), so let's do something about it. It turns out that commit 52ad1e659 already built all the necessary infrastructure to support error-free comparisons, but neglected to actually use it in the main-line code paths. Fix that, do a little bit of code style review, and remove the now-duplicate logic in jsonpath_exec.c. Back-patch to v13 where 52ad1e659 came in.

For time or timetz, the stored result would then be greater than "24:00:00" which would fail dump/reload, not to mention possibly confusing other operations. Fix by explicitly calculating the result and making sure it does not exceed 24 hours. (This calculation is redundant with what will happen later in tm2time or tm2timetz. Maybe someday somebody will find that annoying enough to justify refactoring to avoid the duplication; but that seems too invasive for a back-patched bug fix, and the cost is probably unmeasurable anyway.) Note that this change also rejects such input as the time portion of a timestamp(tz) value. Back-patch to v10. The bug is far older, but to change this pre-v10 we'd need to ensure that the logic behaves sanely with float timestamps, which is possibly nontrivial due to roundoff considerations. Doesn't really seem worth troubling with. Per report from Christoph Berg. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20200520125807.GB296739@msg.df7cb.de
2020-05-16Run pgindent with new pg_bsd_indent version 2.1.1.Tom Lane
Thomas Munro fixed a longstanding annoyance in pg_bsd_indent, that it would misformat lines containing IsA() macros on the assumption that the IsA() call should be treated like a cast. This improves some other cases involving field/variable names that match typedefs, too. The only places that get worse are a couple of uses of the OpenSSL macro STACK_OF(); we'll gladly take that trade-off. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20200114221814.GA19630@alvherre.pgsql

The additional pain from level 4 is excessive for the gain. Also revert all the source annotation changes to their original wordings, to avoid back-patching pain. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/31166.1589378554@sss.pgh.pa.us
2020-05-12Add -Wimplicit-fallthrough to CFLAGS and CXXFLAGSAlvaro Herrera
Use it at level 4, a bit more restrictive than the default level, and tweak our commanding comments to FALLTHROUGH. (However, leave zic.c alone, since it's external code; to avoid the warnings that would appear there, change CFLAGS for that file in the Makefile.)

2020-03-04Introduce macros for typalign and typstorage constants.Tom Lane
Our usual practice for "poor man's enum" catalog columns is to define macros for the possible values and use those, not literal constants, in C code. But for some reason lost in the mists of time, this was never done for typalign/attalign or typstorage/attstorage. It's never too late to make it better though, so let's do that. The reason I got interested in this right now is the need to duplicate some uses of the TYPSTORAGE constants in an upcoming ALTER TYPE patch. But in general, this sort of change aids greppability and readability, so it's a good idea even without any specific motivation. I may have missed a few places that could be converted, and it's even more likely that pending patches will re-introduce some hard-coded references. But that's not fatal --- there's no expectation that we'd actually change any of these values. We can clean up stragglers over time. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/16457.1583189537@sss.pgh.pa.us
2020-01-30Clean up newlines following left parenthesesAlvaro Herrera
We used to strategically place newlines after some function call left parentheses to make pgindent move the argument list a few chars to the left, so that the whole line would fit under 80 chars. However, pgindent no longer does that, so the newlines just made the code vertically longer for no reason. Remove those newlines, and reflow some of those lines for some extra naturality.

The test cases added by commit 26ae3aa80 exposed an old oversight in timestamp[tz]_part: they didn't correct the result of date2isoyear() for BC years, so that we produced an off-by-one answer for such years. Fix that, and back-patch to all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/SG2PR06MB37762CAE45DB0F6CA7001EA9B6550@SG2PR06MB3776.apcprd06.prod.outlook.com
